Issue #3631
get_lock and release_lock cannot be passed through to MySQL because
their behavior is connection dependent, which doesn't work well
for distributed systems, and for pooled connections.
So, we implement our own version of these functions that are more
distributed system friendly, with timeouts as well as session
independent behaviors. More details on the issue.
